for months and Was it possible.
Reading of homework
Six writers read
out their stories - Pat and her bike, One of sixteen, Weight of history,
Architectural horror and heads in buckets, Staying with Aunty Lilly and The
last time.

excellent exercise with a choice of openings, some singing but no dancing plus
an example of absurdist humour as inspiration. The writers created stories about
